It has been a few years since I have done anything like what I am up to now and it looks like I am way over way head....yet again
I would like to have a link at the top of each of my web pages that will allow users to jump "down" the page to the topic that they want, without having to scroll down. I have completely forgotten everything that I thought I once knew and I am sure that my terminology is wrong as well. From what I can remember is that I need to create an "anchor" for the link to go to, but I have tried a couple of different times and all I am getting is "gray" hairs. Can some one please offer some help. Thanx. |

Well I guess I should show you what I have done, to maybe help you answer my question.....
top of page: <a href="#anchor_name"> DraxXus </a> Down the page: <a name="anchor_name"> DraXxus </a> Now this does work, but I don't want to see the word DraXxus @ the bottom of the page. There is already a header there...... |

Or give the the heading an id directly. The browsers that need A name="" are so old now, so it's really isn't needed anymore.
